Slow them down? Nope. Beat them? Unlikely.
The rampaging Coupeville High School JV boys’ basketball squad destroyed another foe Saturday, scoring a season high as it crushed host Chief Leschi 78-32.
The non-conference victory in Puyallup lifts the Wolves to 12-2 with two tilts left on the schedule.
Up first is the home finale against Friday Harbor Feb. 2, then a last road trip Feb. 6 to La Conner.
Those are rematches against rivals the Wolves beat by 14 and 39, respectively, the first time around.
Coupeville’s JV is an equal opportunity juggernaut, with a 7-1 road record and a 5-1 mark at home.
Repping a 2B school, the Wolves only blemishes have been a four-point defeat to 1A Mount Baker and a last-second one-point loss to 3A Oak Harbor.

Chief Leschi, like most of Coupeville’s opponents this season, was overmatched from the first tip to the final buzzer.
The Wolves blew out to a 24-3 lead by the first break, with Aiden O’Neill, Landon Roberts, Jack Porter, and Camden Glover combining to rain down pain on the Warriors.
The hosts actually put up a decent fight in the second quarter, outscoring Coupeville 13-9 to slightly trim the halftime deficit down to 33-16.
That was the cue for Jack Porter and Glover to go right back to work, the duo dominating in the paint as CHS doubled its output with a 33-point explosion in the third frame.
Comfortably up 66-26, with a running clock hurrying things along, the Wolves closed out the night and headed back to the bus, whistling as they went.
Jack Porter finished with a game-high 23, while Glover threw down 20 and Riley Lawless chipped in with six.
O’Neill, Davin Houston, Johnny Porter, Roberts, Malachi Somes, and Jayden McManus banked in four points apiece, while Easton Green (3) and Sage Arends (2) also kept the bookkeeper busy.
Makai Myles rounded out the active roster, providing a defensive buzz to the offensive-heavy brew concocted by the Wolves.
